He was one of the first companions who emigrated to Abyssinia (Ethiopia) during the persecution of the Quraysh. He was a representative of the Muslims who successfully defended the emigrants in the court of King Negus from the Quraysh who came to force them to return to Mecca.

When Zaid (may Allah be pleased with him) was killed, Jafar took the flag of the Muslims (may Allah be pleased with him). He deliberately turned off his horse to dispel any thoughts of returning home from the battlefield. With a flag in one hand and a sword in the other, he jumped on the line of the enemy. The enemy cut his right hand, which held the flag. He immediately moved it to the left. When it was cut off, he held the flag in his teeth and supported him with bleeding hands. His body was cut into two parts by someone from behind, and he fell dead, then he was about 33 years old.
